Answer:

169cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it's a square both of the lengths of the different sides are the same. (A square has 4 sides, therefore we can form an equation : 4x=52)

When you solve for x which determined the length of one single side (x=52/4) and you get 13.

Using the formula for the area of a square a^2

with a being 13, this means the area is 13^2= 169

Answer:

$169cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths of the shape. Since a square has equal side lengths, each side must be the same. Divide 52/4=13cm. 13cm is the length of 1 side. Area is length times width, and since each side is 13, multiply 13cm*13cm to get the area, which is $169cm^2$ ,

If this helped, brainliest answer would be greatly appreciated!

What is the area of Shaded part?

svetlana [45]

Answer:

1π

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the radius of semicircle P is r,

then the radius of semicircle Q = (r+d)/2 ... d≤r

radius of semicircle R = (r-d)/2

area P = 1/2 (r)²π

area Q = 1/2 ((r+d)/2)² π = 1/8 (r² + 2rd + d²)π

area R = 1/2 ((r-d)/2)² π = 1/8 (r² - 2rd + d²)π

shaded area = P-Q-R = 1/2 r²π - 1/4 (r² + d²)π

= ((r² - d²)/4) * π

because there is no constant r value in the question and d value changes with the r change, when the vertical segment length equal the semicircle P radius (r), r=2 and d = 0

therefore the shaded area = ((2² -0²)/4)*π = 1π
